I have been on Lupron for a month now. The first few days my face broke out with about 50 little white heads and I NEVER have acne. It went away after a few days with the help of some acne medication. I was also super nausous for the first 2 weeks and then that went away. I have been fine for the last 2 weeks.

I have been on Lupron for over a year. Besides the hot flashes it has improved my life significantly. I was completely debilitated before and now I can function with much less pain. Side effects menopausal woman emotional vaginal dryness and shrinkage.

So far so good. No period no pain. I had my 2nd shot yesterday. The only side effects I have are hot flashes every day and a slight vaginal odor. The hot flashes aren't too bad. I just dress in layers, so I can remove clothing when needed. I use Summer's Eve feminine wash to deal with the odor.
